Sniper Rifle > all

Huntsman is okay, but it's unreliable and you gotta get too close for comfort. The Machina is for stuffty snipers and the Sydney Sleeper is stuff in general.

Sniper Rifle vs. Huntsman vs. Sydney Sleeper vs. Machina

I know this will come down to what sort of sniper I am, so you guys, who have more experience than I do, can tell me the usual application to each rifle. With your greater knowledge of TF2 than mine, I should be able to decide which sniper I should use.

Also, I don't have Bazaar Bargain, and even if I did I'm not confident enough in my accuracy to use it. I can land shots pretty easily, I can aim pretty well if I don't have to move.

Machina

I don't want just to know that it works, I want to know why it works as well.

Why is the Machina for stuffty snipers?

I dunno. I got plenty of double kills with one.

this.

I also like the sydney sleeper, I don't go for kills as sniper.

[Vegetarian Zombie]

Well, I guess it's a bit sloppier since you don't have to headshot to kill the lower health classes.

But still, wouldn't that result in more kills?

I've thought about the Sleeper, but I really don't like sacrificing both headshots AND random crits...

The Machina is just a rifle that can pierce on full charge, but you have to scope to fire and it leaves tracers.

Sydney Sleeper is used more or less for long range support with the jarate darts, plus it can 1 hit anyclass under 150 HP on a full charge thanks to the increased charge rate.

Huntsman is fun to use sometimes in my opinion, plus the skewer taunt is one of my favorite kill taunts.

Bazaar Bargain is just a piece of stuff and I don't like it.

[Joltarn]

bazaar bargain's pretty fun now with the buff it got

Because people that suck at aiming and can't head shot will use that and just body shot.

I go for headshots anyway, it's unreliable to just body shot. By the time you've reloaded, you could be dead.

Well, each weapon puts classes into a subclass of sorts. What subclass does each of those weapons make the sniper?

I get that the sleeper results in long-range support.

EDIT: I'm liking the Machina so far because if I miss the headshot, there's a good chance of getting a powerful body shot, it's kind of insurance.

Another reason why I like it.
